I've had to turn down sex because of that before, it's not a very nice experience Pinecone Sample posted:Hello, I'm (F26) living with my boyfriend(M26) and he's been jobless for a year now. I love him very much but I am suffering. I feel he can do more to help out, but it's been stressful times for us both. he's not doing poo poo when you're at work, darling. just sleeping in and playing video games and then performatively studying for a minute or two right when you get home. It's not going to get better, and your enabling of him is probably not helping him either in the end. Quicker you realize all that quicker you can get the hell out If she can't just dump him, at least set a deadline for getting a job. He can study programming and work at the same time

Leon Einstein posted:Does your management truly not care about you letting people in after you? I was at a place where it was common for people to do it, but if management saw it, you'd get in trouble. Some places use card access for securing restricted access, but don't care about specific access. They care if you leave the door open or if you let a stranger in, but if you're holding the door for a colleague no one cares because it's only about people allowed to be in being in. Some places use card access for security and tracking. They want to know who was in where and when and keep track of that. Those places want each individual to use their card because the logging is part of the security, not just making sure everyone in is allowed in. Then you have uptight or lax bosses/security who can make it seem like it's in a different category because no one cares about why rules are in place, just whether they think they should be followed or not.

Anne Whateley posted:I think it partly depends on recognize vs. know, and on how strict your security is. Like if I've been out to lunch with a colleague, I'll hold the door coming in with them (so they end up not carding in) and nobody cares. If my workplace were top secret, I'm guessing that wouldn't be allowed. His posts don't mention ever letting in black colleagues. Letting in the occasional latinx or asian person is irrelevant to whether he's racist against black people, because POCs aren't all one big monolith. Lots of NBPOCs are themselves racist against black people. America truly set the world standard there. Antiblack racism is as popular as blue jeans and diet coke.

Just that she's showered within the past 4 days, in fact she had just showered, but presumably boyfriend was referring to how she smells generally, not right at that moment. But the bacterial vaginosis seems likely to me because that wouldn't be really affected by a shower. Some girls don't seem to be aware of how strong that smell is, she does claim that her vagina specifically smells fine but obviously something is going on. Seems like it would be a smart idea to promise not to get upset and ask boyfriend straight up what smell he is referring to

WIBTA if I confronted my boyfriend for tipping a waiter $60 instead of spending the money on me? I’m kind of convinced that I’m overreacting and am in fact TA but I want other opinions first. Also, I’m tired so I’m going to make this as clear and concise as I can. My Bf (20M) and I (18F) have been dating for going on a year now. We started out as FWB but then we both developed feelings. In the beginning stage of our relationship he would constantly take me out to dinner and buy me random things he found and thought that I would like (nothing ever expensive just a cute stuffed animal or figurine that he saw for example). At the same point in this relationship I would reciprocate these actions. I would bring him food to work when I went into visit him, I would buy him random presents and would surprise him with random dinners just so he knew that I cared about him. Fast forward a couple months and he’s still doing everything listed above just less frequently. He developed financial struggles and eventually quit his job and was unemployed for about a month. During this time he completely stopped spending any money on me and it was entirely me spending money when we went out or did something together. This didn’t bother me at all as I understood it was only a temporary situation and I loved him. He got his job back about three months ago making decent money (we make about the same amount) and I have recently moved about an hour and a half away to go to college so we only see each other every two weeks. The problem for me comes in because I am the only one making an effort to drive the hour and a half to either visit home for the weekend or take him up to my dorm. This costs quite a lot in gas. After I make the drive I am the only one who spends money on dates or anything we decide to do when we hang out and he frequently asks me if I can buy him food. His excuse for this is that we always hang out right before he gets paid (he gets paid on Monday and we always hang out the weekend before due to work schedules) and at that point all of the money from his paycheck is gone. He never makes any effort to save money even though he knows this is going to happen every time we see each other. Today, he called me and told me that he went out with friends and tipped a waiter $60 because it was “the best service he had ever received.” I have not said that this hurt me or anything regarding the situation at all because I don’t know if I’m being an rear end. WIBTA if I did confront him for this?

AITA for letting not waking up my roommate and letting him miss 2 college exams? I live in the dorms with a roommate. We get along most of the time except for when it comes to night time. He’ll stay up all night playing the game and being loud. He wakes me up multiple times during the night and doesn’t care about it. I’ve talked to him about it but he just keeps staying up late and making noise. He usually sleeps really early and the morning and sleeps through his alarms. His classes are before mine so I usually wake him up. Last night he especially pissed me off because he kept the light on at like 2:00 am because he waited until the last minute to study for his exams that were today. He refused to go to the lobby because “the room is his too”. He ended up sleeping late again but this time I didn’t wake him up and I just left for class. I came back to the room and he looked like he was about to cry and told me that he failed 2 exams for 2 of his core classes because he didn’t show up. He got mad at me for not waking him up and I told him I’m not his loving personal alarm clock.

Ooh, the dorm roommate story pisses me off. One of my college roommates would always start doing his homework at midnight until 4 am, and he always did it in our dorm room with the lights at full blast. I'm a light sleeper, so i didnt get much sleep each night. No matter how many times i told him to go to another room, he would never listen and keep doing his work late at night. gently caress the roommate in this story

Grocery stores are run by the most incompetent fuckers. I remember working at one when I was 17. There were two younger guys there with me who were pretty cool, and we got along. When I learned they were 15 I asked them how they even got the job in the first place, since you had to be 16 to be employed in my state. They told me that they had asked the store manager exactly that and he assured them it wasn't an issue. Then, four weeks into their employment, they were both let go because they were 15. DemoneeHo posted:and consistently didn’t make it in before 11-12. And equally alas, we were on the West Coast in financial services, so we already started the day ‘late’ by market standards To put this in perspective, the market closes at one on the West Coast. If a client wants to make a trade that day you're cutting it pretty close unless you're placing the trades yourself. I suspect these guys aren't doing much market related stuff though.

WIBTA if I uninvite my brother to my wedding? I'm getting married this December and my fiancee and I are very excited, at least we were until my family just had to be difficult at every turn. When we first started the planning I had asked my younger brother (17) to be my best man. We had been having some trouble with him wanting to follow the dress code for the wedding. He wanted to wear his bright red Jordans with the rest of his wedding attire. My fiancee obviously had an issue with this. It started to get out of hand when I got adamant that he not where those shoes because he would stick out and wouldn't match any of the wedding colors. He refused to change his mind and my Mom told us to let him wear the shoes because "they look cool". My Mom has always treated him like they baby since he is the youngest of three, it has really turned him into a lazy spoiled brat. Yesterday we told him the rest of the groomsmen attire, a grey sweater, white button up, and navy slacks. He flat out refused to wear it. Somehow he got it in his head that he was going to wear an all black suit with a bright red tie. Our wedding is right after Christmas in a church, it is not a funeral. My finance was furious because he absolutely refused to change his mind saying "its not a big deal" and "it doesn't matter what I wear". I tired to explain he would look ridiculous standing next to the rest of the wedding part and that he only needs to wear it for one evening. When I ask his reasoning for not wanting to wear the clothes you simply says that he doesn't like them. So I told him if he can't follow the dress code then he can't be my best man or apart the wedding party. I asked if he would rather help my fiance's two-year-old daughter be a flower girl. All he would have to do is help her walk down the aisle and he would have a lot more freedom to choose what he wears, but he can't wear an all black suit. He still refused and insisted on wearing what he wants, so I told him if that's his choice he will not be a part of the wedding party and will not be in any pictures. This whole situation has put my fiancee over the edge, because if he's being this stubborn on clothing chances are he's going to be just as stubborn everywhere else. My fiance's family holds no punches and always speak their mind for better or worse. They will point out the flaws in my mom's parenting and how horrible my brother is and will cause drama and fighting. My fiance feels afraid of her wedding and said she can no longer feel excited for it because she has to tip toe around my family. It got to the point she considered canceling or postponing the wedding. This was the final straw for me, I am fed up with my family. I'm done with my my spoiled brother, done with my mom always defending him, and done with them causing my soon to be wife any more unneeded stress. WIBTA if I uninvited my brother if he cannot guarantee he will be on his best behavior and not step out of line.

AITA if I don't accompany my husband to his second tattoo session because of my own jealousy? I am awake in the middle of the night wrestling with a lot of feelings and feel like poo poo, so if my suspicions are true and I'm an rear end in a top hat please tell me. My husband and I drove 4 hours away to a very talented tattoo artist, are paying a poo poo ton of money for him to be tattooed here and it is his first tattoo. It will be a sleeve, this trip is two days worth and only the first of several similar sessions. I don't really want to go with him to sit in the shop for 9 hours (again) watching him get ink on a level I would love to have but can't because we wouldn't be able to afford it. I feel like never showing my own tattoos ever again because by comparison mine look like poo poo. I used to adore my tattoos and thought they were awesome but they're boring plain cartoon characters done in a more american traditional style with bold color and defined outlines. This artist is a cartoon realism style and looks loving amazing. I have had mine for years and was proud, now I'm ashamed to show them. I feel jealous and regretful and feel lovely for feeling that way. He sat for 9 hours without any issue and he said it didn't even hurt much. To be fair this artist does not do lines in his work which I found color/shading way more tolerable but I feel kind of irritated he had such little pain and I was internally screaming having some of mine done. Like not only does he have amazing art but it didn't even hurt. I haven't said anything at all about how I feel because I want him to enjoy it and have fun and love his new ink. I don't want to ruin his whole experience over my emotional ineptitude. I know I will process the emotion and get over it... Yet I kind of just want to stay at the hotel or go do my own thing for the next day to lessen the amount of resentment I'm feeling right now. Would that be an rear end in a top hat move? Or should I stfu and just stew in my emotions at the appointment. EDIT: I realized I said I didn't talk to him at all, which isn't entirely accurate. I did tell him I felt jealous and how I felt my own art looks lovely compared to his. He just said my tattoos weren't bad. This was on the ride back to the hotel. He fell asleep pretty much immediately after we got to our hotel room and has been out since. That was the extent of it. I haven't discussed it further.

Matching the bridal party is like Expectation 1 in being in said bridal party. You are not the focus of the proceedings. Nobody's there to give a poo poo about your expensive red sneakers. Stand still, be quiet, and hand over the ring, rear end in a top hat. If he's such a preening asswipe that he thinks he's entitled to upstage his brother's bride at the altar, then gently caress him.
